Breakfast was a surprise. Yeah, whatever.Lunch: chicken salad sandwich and carrots. I ended up not eating the fruit until I was on my way home from work. I am so sad the chicken salad is gone!I had 2 mini Reeses for a snack. Only 2.Dinner was grilled ratatouille with half of a big pita and goat cheese.I got hungry later. I had a bowl of wheat chex. Nothing too exciting.I had SO MANY opportunities to go to Starbucks today and I stayed strong! Go me!

Breakfast: surprise, surprise.Lunch has no picture. I brought a chicken salad sandwich, carrots, and fruit salad. However, my plans were disrupted by a lunch meeting - with my company and hospital folks - with Pizza Hut. I really didn't feel like I was at a point to say no. But my Mama Wolf - ie boss who loves me - ordered a thin crust veggie pizza with me in mind! I had a single slice of pizza and a single breadstick. I really made the most of that.

I also had a Venti Iced 3-Pump White Mocha. I was stressed and had done a lot of other's people's work for "the team." Thus my co-worker bought me a drink. So I drank it.

Dinner was my lunch: chicken salad sandwich and carrots. I wonder where my fruit is? (I remembered to take a picture AFTER I had started my sandwich.)I have done a little snacking tonight - in the form of the rest of my Clif bar that I didn't finish for breakfast.

Brekkie: the usual.Lunch: This is stock footage, but I had the same salad. Mixed greens, shredded chicken, cranberries, walnuts, currants, goat cheese, fig and maple dressing. And I am not using water bottles anymore. I have a pretty Starbucks cup now. You'll see pictures tomorrow.Snack: A handful peanut M&Ms. I got in our supply drawer for some rubber bands, and the huge bag was staring at me. Hey, it's better than a trip to Starbucks.Dinner: White Pizza. This bread was kinda between a pita and a tortilla in thickness. Really good. With ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and a whole tomato sliced up.I also had an additional bottled Starbucks drink as a snack this evening. Baby steps, right?

Breakfast: Starbucks and a Clif bar.Lunch was prepared by Kent. HUGE pork chops (I didn't finish mine), grilled sweet potatoes, and 2 huge rolls.And then lunch-dessert: strawberry shortcake with angel food cake.And we stopped for a drink several hours later - a venti iced 3-pump white mocha.Dinner was difficult. I was not hungry at all, but I knew I had to eat. So I had a huge bowl of fruit and a dip of plain yogurt and honey. I actually just had a little dip and then gave it to Nathan. I love my new Starbucks cup!See you tomorrow!

Breakfast: Starbucks and a Clif bar.Snack: I was starving and had a terrible headache. I tried this from the cafeteria. I wasn't a big fan.Lunch: YUM! Mixed greens, chicken, cranberries, currants, almonds, goat cheese, and maple fig dressing. I brought everything but the greens from home.Dinner: These were just okay. Some veggie/cheese/bean concoction. I had 2 of these.Wow was dinner spicy. Jerk chicken tacos. I only ate one and a half, and only 2 chips. And I had four really big (like supersized) cups of water. I'm gonna be peeing all night.And I need to add 2 mini reese cups. No picture of those.

About Me

I LOVE being married!
I am losing weight by tuning into my body and listening. I eat when I'm hungry and I exercise until my body tells me to stop. I am tracking all of this on SparkPeople. My goal is to start running when I reach 200 pounds.
